Benefits - National Fraud Initiative

The Isle of Anglesey County Council is participating in an exercise to ensure that public money is being spent properly.

The Council is required by law to protect the public funds it administers. It may share information provided to it with other bodies responsible for auditing or administering public funds in order to prevent fraud and detect fraud.

The Auditor General for Wales currently requires us to participate in this anti fraud initiative.  For this initiative, we are providing details of our council tax payers for the purposes of comparing these with information from other public bodies.  The details supplied will apply in respect of council tax payers during April 1st 2008 - 31st March 2009 and future years.  This will ensure that public money is being spent effectively.

We will not give information about you to anyone else, or use information about you for other purposes, unless the law allows us to.

We, The Isle of Anglesey County Council, are the data controller for the purposes of the Data Protection Act.  If you want to know what information we have about you, or the way we use that information, please ask us.
